Born Lauren Helen Graham, on Mar 16, 1967, in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA. Reportedly 5' 9".

The cute, chatty mom from Gilmore Girls — who strangely looks young on TV but old in publicity stills — Lauren Graham is also known by the unfortunate title “Queen of Canceled Series”. Get an eyeball-full of her now, because her touchy-feely, critically acclaimed but seldom watched show can't possibly last more than a few seasons.

The problem with Parenthood
Saturday, April 10, 2010
I liked Parenthood the movie. I liked Peter Krause in Six Feet Under, Dax Shepard in Employee of the Month, and Craig T. Nelson in Poltergeist. I like Erika Christensen’s rack in anything. And I love Lauren Graham. But after six weeks of Parenthood the series, I’m ready for emancipation.... Read more

Fred, Jen, and the American joke
Wednesday, March 3, 2010
They say that the comedy of one culture doesn’t export well to another, but if you ever try watching an American comedy with the foreign audio or subtitles on, it becomes pretty clear why some countries allegedly dismiss any joke that isn’t funny as an “American joke”.... Read more

The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards: In case you had a life that evening
Monday, January 18, 2010
Some of us may be Ricky Gervais fans, some of us fans of this or that award nominee, but most of us who tuned in for the Golden Globes at all were probably just curious to see who showed up wearing what wardrobe-malfunction-prone dress. Here’s some of what you missed if you didn’t have the endurance to sit through the whole show.... Read more

Whither Now the Cast of Gilmore Girls?
Friday, May 18, 2007
Now that CW has finally rid itself of Gilmore Girls (along with 7th Heaven and Veronica Mars) and filled the vacuum with more reality show dreck, what will become of Stars Hollow’s newly unemployed?... Read more

Apostatization
Tuesday, October 3, 2006
The handful of people out there who still watch Gilmore Girls already know that the show has been ailing for quite a while now. They also know that the new season, the first one without the show’s creator, will probably be the least — and last — of the series.... Read more

Leaving Lorelai
Monday, September 11, 2006
As I’m pretty much the only person I know who regularly watches The WB’s CW’s critically acclaimed but otherwise ignored Gilmore Girls, I had come to believe that I was alone in my frustrations with the show. That is, until Entertainment Weekly published a reader’s open Dear John letter:... Read more

The Gathering Dust On My TV Remote
Wednesday, November 3, 2004
I know I’ve complained about this before, but it seems especially true this season than it has in previous seasons: Gilmore Girls, while it’s always been obnoxiously cutesy, has been offering precious little else this time around.... Read more

The Great Pretender
Thursday, June 17, 2004
To see Lauren Graham in interviews is to wonder just how much “acting” she really does on that show, as the giggling, effervescent actress seems indistinguishable from her giggling, effervescent character. To see her playing poker on Bravo’s Celebrity Poker Showdown, however, is to finally catch a tiny glimpse of the real Lauren, the ice-blooded, wheels-and-gears mastermind she keeps hidden behind her disarming “belly buttons are cool” façade. If you missed the show, you can see the clips here.... Read more

White Christmas Lies
Wednesday, November 26, 2003
It seems that Lauren Graham was a wee misleading in her interview with Kilborn — she’s in a love scene alright, but there’s no nudity. Anyone planning to see Bad Santa for no other reason but to see the naughty side of Lorelai will be sorely disappointed. Funny movie, though.... Read more

Wrong and Loving It
Saturday, December 28, 2002
Well, I never thought I’d see the day, but not only is Gilmore Girls still on the air (and thank God, too, because as smarmy as the show often is, I’ve gotten hooked on the damned thing), but Lauren Graham reported on Kilborn last night that she has a nude scene in Bad Santa (directed by Ghost World’s Terry Zwigoff) with, of all people, Billy Bob Thornton. Christmas, it seems, is certainly a time of miracles.... Read more
